Pull Your Head Out: The Ostrich Effect Stops Now - Daily MINI-CAST with Kim & Jill

Feeling stuck? Discover how to break free from old patterns and embrace change with open arms.

In this episode, Kim and Jill delve into the complexities of navigating life's challenges when familiar coping mechanisms no longer work. They explore why our brains feel like they're on overdrive, constantly searching for new ways to process overwhelming information. The duo uses the metaphor of an ostrich sticking its head in the sand to illustrate the struggle—and necessity—of facing reality differently.

Key takeaways include:
- Embracing change requires us to consciously choose openness.
- Love is a powerful force nudging us toward growth and acceptance.
- Laughter can be a healing balm, opening up heart spaces for more love.

Tune in as we uncover how subtle shifts can lead to profound personal transformation.

Hello, lovely listeners and good morning, Kim. Good morning, Jill. Good morning, everyone. Things are a little challenging for us again. It has been the past few weeks to bring these messages to bite size.

Yes. Oh. So I can't imagine what's going through everybody's brains if we are trying to dissect this. Wowzers. Your brains are probably going on, I don't know what you call it, the word steroid. That's with all the information maybe lately or trying to figure it out, how to process it in your own brain. Like, what's going on? I don't understand why this is happening.

Yes. It's kind of like we said. The way we used to process it worked in the past and we're trying that same way now. It's not working. And then the brain kicks in to this overdrive or on steroids, like searching kind of frantically.

Well, like, well, then how do I do it? How do I do it? Because the way that I always did it doesn't work anymore.

Yes. That's literally what's happening. And then the ostrich comes to mind. Take our heads, stick it in a hole.

That's awesome.

We have to. We have to take our heads out of the hole and look around.

That's a great visual.

The rest of his body's in the back. Like his head's like...

Exactly.

That's great.

Yeah, it's hard though, to see things differently or be able to, I don't know, accept perceives things a little bit differently without fear or without, well, that can't be the right way or... I don't know if I could go that way because xyz, you know, maybe somebody doesn't agree with it that way.

It's like we need to step up. We are the only ones that can do it for ourselves. We can't wait for somebody else to shove that ostrich head back. Like he's got to do it on his own.

So it's the same thing for us. We are literally being forced to see a different aspect. But we have to be the ones to choose that we're ready to see something different or that we're willing to see something different.

Right.

That's interesting because the use of the word we're being forced. It's like we are, but we also aren't. Like we'll be nudged and nudged and nudged over and over and over and over again. But each time we can meet that... we're sticking our heads in the ground if we want to.

That's how powerful we are.

Yeah. Like that nudge will happen forever, and yet we always have the counter to it. The counter force, if you will, to a degree. It pushes us that direction and it's a loving nudge and force.

Right.

But yes, we have a lot in us that can create even what we don't want.

Yeah, exactly.

And like we were saying, Kim, it's a little bit similar to some of our messages last week, but it's similar or same but different. It's a similar message, but it's so different... different... it's subtly so different.

I think to me what I'm getting is the subtle differences is that we are going to continuously get that nudge. That force is going to continue to happen faster than it has, which is the difference.

We used to say no to the nudge and then it... like... I don't know, I'll just give it a time frame... we had like six months or a year before it would nudge us or force us again where now it's like what you might get six to 12 days and the nudge is going to come back.

Yeah, it's faster. The cycle is faster. And it's to open to this new way of doing things, of processing stuff which is so new.

We're kind of frightened of it because we don't know it. We're like, well, I don't want to do things that way because I don't know it.

Emotions with that...

There's a lot of emotions around it, isn't there?

Yeah.

Yep.

I just also got hit with like wanting to cry.

Yeah.

Holy...

And I was not that way prior.

No.

Oh my goodness...

Okay people who...

Yeah this is hitting people on a deep level... like where it's hitting their heart... heart level... grieving sorrow loss but like not even that... just more of unconditional love...

Oh there it is...

Yeah... like loving themselves unconditionally.

This is the reason why things are coming up the way they are... like you don't feel like you're being loved or you're getting the love and it's...

Well you're asking for it... we're going to keep bringing it to you... we're going to keep hitting your heart space...

Yeah even if you're not consciously asking for that love...

It's like as the trajectory humanity is on that has to come... we have to have more love in our space...

Yesterday I said to my husband yesterday about... he made a joke about something and it really hit his funny bone...

He tends to laugh more than I do anyway you know?

But it hit his funny bone and I had a moment where I was just like very quick...

I was like oh my gosh I'm almost like envious as someone who can laugh that much that quick that fast which I didn't say that to him what I said to him was

I wish I laughed that much I could use laughing like that more in my life or something is what I said

And he looked at me and he said "the world could"

And I was like isn't that the truth

That's too me what this heart space opening up about is - more laughter more more of that love more acceptance without things having to change or be our way

It's just that openness

Oh yeah

I love it

Yep

Yeah alright

I didn't know I was going to cry this morning

Well my wish is I hope everyone who hears this gets a moment of the almost overwhelm like Kim did with that amount ocean where you realize that's how big that heart space is

Yeah okay thank you Jill thank you everyone

Yes thank you thank you Kim

Alright until next time
